This is probably the longest I've ever heard them not talk about the game being played It's Altrezim Stronghold. You aren't going to see anything worth talking about in the first few minutes in TvZ. This map is way too big for anything other than just CC first builds. It's a horrible map tbh. I complete disagree that it's zerg favoured too, at least not vs P. Vs T I really don't know, I could see some really stupid games being played here. My games on AS usually look like the one these two played in the earlier series. Get swallowed up by the zerg on my first pushout and lose control of my third into die. Mech seems almost impossible to play, it's like a protoss deathball without recall and warp gate. You're likely to die from starvation before you can eliminate a zerg who just spams buildings everywhere.
Mech is hard to play.
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
It's gratifying to win with though, makes it worthwhile when you do.

This should be a Code A series. I can't believe one of these two is going to advance to the Ro16 in the GSL the way they are playing.
TRUE had really good hellion-defense. His macro is on point in this game and he has good multitasking and controls this game really well.
He looked lost against mech on heavy rain but against BByong's bio play he is actually playing really well.
Edit: and as I say that he takes an absolutely awful engagement...

"He scouted nothing in his base" isn't necessarily a good thing

and that's why you dont sacrifice banelings on thors
|
Now imagine how dead Bbyong would be if TRUE wouldnt have the worst baneling control of all time
|
Not the most efficient baneling usage but I guess it works out
|
In all seriousness this map is awful
|
Ah korean terrans why u get no tanks?
|
I feel for Bbyong how are you supposed to attack on this map ? He should just defend and split the map if possible ...
|
Ok this looks amazing, but the Zerg is loosing waaaay to much stuff.

He doesn't even NEED to be playing this well.
BByong looks terrible in this game. Maybe it's the map forcing him away from Mech which he's more comfortable with, but for whatever reason Bbyong looks as lost in this game as TRUE did in the last one.
Either way. This doesn't look like a Code S series, especially if you compare it to something like you'd see from like Soulkey vs Taeja.
EDIT: soon as I typed that TRUE threw away a million Banelings for nothing. FFS.

True no ttaking gas at 4/5 base and no macro hatches - he doesn't want to win does he?

No way for terran to survive splitmap, not enough mobility and mutas are too good --;

True rulling into Bbyongs 3rd witha ton of banelings again but Bbyong holds. Banelings blow up 2 thors.
Supplys are even.
Has True seeing Bbyongs 4th?
Bbyong is dropping Trues 5th and natural again.
Bbyong now up by 30 supply.
Drops are doing ok daamage and forcing Treus mutas to be defensive while Bbyong ismoving across the map with a maxed army again.
|
True seems to like throwing away won games by being overly aggressive. He did that against Parting, he now does it against BByong :/
|
Haha true, has 2.7k minerals in the bank and not a single static Defense to help him defend against the drops :D
|
True is on hive tech? he must be looking at those upgrades and wondering why nobody told him about them before :o

It's fine though TRUE is wasting his gas on banelings and isn't using them effectively .

His baneling control is awful!
